carbazole
Also known as dibenzopyrrole, diphenylenimide, diphenylenimine, dibenzo[b,d]pyrrole, 9-azafluorene, 9H-carbazole, 9H-CARBAZOLE
Carbazole is an aromatic heterocyclic organic compound. It has a tricyclic structure, consisting of two six-membered benzene rings fused on either side of a five-membered nitrogen-containing ring. The compound's structure is based on the indole structure, but in which a second benzene ring is fused onto the five-membered ring at the 2–3 position of indole (equivalent to the 9a–4a double bond in carbazole, respectively).
